VILLA PARK – Professional and amateur bicyclists transformed a section of Villa Park into a race track Sunday for the third annual Grand Prix Bicycle Race.

Spectators lined the course, which ran clockwise along Park Boulevard, Princeton Avenue, Washington Street and Harvard Avenue. Food vendors and entertainment were stationed near the start/finish line at Park and Yale Avenue.

The event was sponsored by RDS Cycling Team and Club, a member of the United States Cycling Development Foundation.
